I booked this hotel pretty randomly, but it turned out to be a total gem. The location is unbeatable—just steps from the subway exit, with the Kamo River right across the street. A 5-minute walk takes you to the heart of the bustling shopping district, lined with charming bakeries and cute little cafes. Perfect for a morning pastry run or evening stroll. The staff were incredibly thoughtful—front desk staff gave me a warm welcome, offered helpful tips, even helped take photos. They also surprised me with a welcome cocktail, which was such a sweet touch. The room is compact, but cleverly designed with a tatami seating area perfect for relaxing or sharing a drink. It’s cozy without feeling cramped. Honestly, this place exceeded my expectations in every way. Great value, great vibe, and an authentic Kyoto experience. Definitely coming back.

Staying at this hotel was an absolute delight! From check-in to check-out, the service was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and genuinely welcoming. The location is perfect for exploring Kyoto; it’s just a short walk from Nijo Castle and well-connected by public transit. I especially appreciated the in-room breakfast delivery—it arrived fresh and beautifully presented. The breakfast itself was one of the best I’ve had in Japan: a great mix of traditional Japanese dishes, fresh fruits, warm rice porridge, and delicious pastries. Everything was thoughtfully prepared and tasted incredible. The room was clean, spacious, and quietly comfortable. Overall, this place offers outstanding value for the quality. I’ll definitely be returning and highly recommend it to fellow travelers looking for a peaceful, well-run stay in Kyoto.

Staying at Banyan Tree Higashiyama Kyoto was an absolute highlight of my trip to Kyoto. From the moment I walked in, the serene atmosphere and attention to detail were immediately noticeable—the blend of traditional Japanese aesthetics with modern luxury is simply stunning. My room offered a peaceful view of a beautifully landscaped garden, and waking up to tea on the tatami mat felt like stepping into a tranquil painting. The staff went above and beyond—warm, attentive, and always ready to help, especially the personal concierge who assisted with everything from restaurant reservations to local recommendations. Location-wise, it’s perfect: a short walk to Gion and Kiyomizu-dera, and just minutes from the nearest subway station. Even though it’s a luxury retreat, the value for money feels unbeatable. This wasn’t just a stay—it was an experience. I’ll definitely be back.

This hotel absolutely exceeded my expectations! The standout feature is the spacious room—47 square meters, which is quite impressive for Japan. I felt so much more comfortable than in other hotels where space can be tight. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive, always going the extra mile to ensure a pleasant stay. Location-wise, it's perfect—right outside the door is a large supermarket, making grocery shopping a breeze. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, ideal for a relaxing getaway. Everything about this place feels thoughtfully designed, from the layout to the service. It’s rare to find such a combination of comfort, convenience, and calm. I’d highly recommend it to anyone visiting Kyoto, and I’ll definitely be returning.

Staying at Homm Stay Nagi Sanjo Kyoto by Banyan Group was an absolute delight—especially given how spacious and non-traditional the room felt right in the heart of Kyoto. The layout is incredibly thoughtful: a generous walk-in closet, a well-designed bathroom with full separation between wet and dry areas, and even a dedicated toilet space that feels open and airy. The 1.6-meter queen-sized bed made for a truly restful night’s sleep. What stood out most? This isn’t your average Japanese hotel—it blends modern Western comfort with subtle local touches, making it feel both fresh and authentic. Plus, walking just 10–15 minutes from the property brings you to a vibrant mix of great food spots and charming local shops. On-site, there’s a must-visit café called Here Coffee—rumored to be run by a national latte art champion—where lines start forming before opening at 9 AM. It’s no surprise; the vibe, coffee quality, and energy are all top-tier. If you’re looking for a stylish, comfortable, and convenient base in Kyoto, this place is a standout. I’ll definitely be back.

Staying at Six Senses Kyoto was an absolute highlight of my trip to Japan. From the moment I walked in, the warm and thoughtful Japanese hospitality stood out—staff were polite, attentive, and genuinely welcoming without being overbearing. The hotel itself feels fresh and modern, with a strong emphasis on sustainability woven into every detail, from the food and drinks to the design. I couldn’t book the spa (it’s famously popular), but the on-site hot spring was a wonderful alternative—perfect for unwinding after a long day. The omakase restaurant downstairs was an unforgettable experience; watching the chef craft each piece of sushi with such precision and care felt like art in motion. Even though I had the place mostly to myself during dinner and drinks at the bar, service remained impeccable and personal. Breakfast was a half-self-service spread—I enjoyed the Western-style options, though the omelette could’ve been fluffier. The Japanese rice was excellent, and while other dishes were just average, the welcome fruits and little pastries added a sweet touch, even if they didn’t quite hit the mark flavor-wise. A small disappointment: no welcome champagne, but that’s just a minor note in what was otherwise a flawless stay. If you’re looking for a serene, eco-conscious retreat with exceptional service and culinary charm, this is it.

Staying at Kyoran Kisaragitei was an absolute delight. The moment I stepped into the property, I was captivated by the serene garden area—perfectly manicured with traditional Japanese elements that create a calming atmosphere. The room itself was spacious, clean, and well-appointed with modern comforts blended seamlessly with classic design. I especially appreciated the thoughtful touches like high-quality toiletries and excellent bedding. What truly stood out was the location—within walking distance to major attractions like Gion and Kiyomizu-dera, yet tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. There are plenty of local cafes, boutiques, and restaurants nearby, making it easy to explore Kyoto’s charm without needing to travel far. For a peaceful retreat with great convenience, this place is a must-book.

The location is excellent—just a short walk from Kyoto Station, making it super convenient for exploring the city and getting around by train. The hotel is spotlessly clean with all the essentials you’d expect, and the room amenities are well thought out. The only minor downside is that the two beds are placed side by side, which might not be ideal if you prefer more space between sleeping areas. One thing to note: after booking online, there’s an additional tax to pay upon check-in—I initially thought it was a deposit and even asked the front desk for a refund at checkout, only to get a confused look in return! Lesson learned. Also, if you want housekeeping service, make sure to place a sign outside your door—unlike some hotels back home, they don’t automatically assume cleaning is needed. Overall, this is a great stay with strong value for money, especially given the central location and clean, modern rooms. I’d definitely recommend it.

Absolutely loved my stay! The hotel is perfectly located right next to major attractions, making it super convenient to explore Kyoto's top sights without needing to travel far. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with modern amenities. I appreciated the quiet atmosphere and the thoughtful touches that made the experience feel personal. Being just steps away from local charm and culture made the whole trip even more memorable. Highly recommend this spot for travelers who want a peaceful retreat while staying in the heart of the action.

Staying at Floral Green Maple House in Kyoto was an absolute delight! The room was immaculately clean and surprisingly well-equipped—complete with a washing machine, stove, microwave, and even a dryer right in the bathroom. I loved being able to wash and dry my clothes on-site; it felt so convenient and homely. The staff were incredibly attentive and genuinely warm throughout the entire stay. I accidentally left my headphones behind, and instead of just waiting for me to notice, they reached out immediately and arranged to send them back to Tokyo—such a thoughtful gesture! It really made the experience stand out. Located right near Shijo Kawaramachi, everything is within walking distance, and the overall vibe is cozy yet modern.
